Was getting my car washed the other day when i spotted this parked up.

old school Reiger body kitted car looked original with the YOKO AVS tyres on, anyone know the car ?

 

dont know the car, and it might have been cool in the 90s but it looks soooooo wrong now. not my cup of tea!!!

 

I've seen ALOT worse.. I kinda like it

 

Its not from darlington buy any chance.There was a garage on mcmullen road selling one the same as this for 10k lol.

 

Seen this on ebay recently! No bids mind.

 

Yes that must be the one, looking at the condition of the car & the old school tyre it must have been tucked up in some garage somewhere

Looks like the sort of car you would see in an early max power mag

 

It's still on ebay

 

I would say it the other way round m8, not cool in the 90's but id drive it now

 

there is another on ebay as a project

 

Would look so much better without the rear spoiler, Cossie version looks so out of place.

Cool Retro look though

 

Love it, looks old skool, if i had a spare 10k id be snapping it up

 

I like that.

 

thats as bad as a dimmer kit on a 205 the 90s where cruel with body kits i blame ali g

 

well i must be missing something here, i think it looks terrible! if this is the way forward i might get my 3 dr interior re trimmed in yellow and blue leather!!

 

Where abouts are you from.Pikeys are selling this.They have had it for months.

 

Blame Ali G all you want, but weren't the 90's a few years before Ali G?

 

look at the dish on the back wheels , could put your dog in there for a walk lol

 

I dont like,even when it was suppose to be "cool".10K ?Surley not.

 

It is still on ebay for 11k......

 

The place that was selling it had a nice mk1 capri for sale too.

 

Take the rear spoiler off and I'd have that
I thinks it's cool

 

I think its horrid.

 

Marmite car methinks.
One minute I like it, the next I dont.
Wouldnt want to drive it around all day tho.

 

Taking away the looks of it I would be concerned at what was under the kit before parting with any cash, but still wouldn't pay 10k for it

 

hasn't it been on eBay now for a while. Yeah I agree it's a marmite car you either love it or hate it..

 

It's a bit of car history, it was cars like this that made max power so popular, I remember having a poster of a blue cab on my wall when I was 16, if I had the money and some were to keep it I would buy it,

 

I kind of like it.....

 

Same here I kind of like it!
Just needs toning down alittle lose the rear spolier and replace it with a 90 spec, smooth the front bumper out so it's not so angular, lose the hole in the rear arches and round the sides skirts off, put standard headlights in and Bobs your Nan.

IIRC they were a very expensive kit back in the day. Sure they were full replacement body panels rather than bonded on fiberglass.

 

Anyone remember the panique kits for the mk1 and 2 Fiesta's ?

PSG kit for the mk3 Fez ?


Or what about this Mattig kit for the mk2 Astra

 

See that I really like wide arches but much smoother not a 100% on the rear spoiler thou.

sorry but i think the astra is just as ugly as the escort. they look far too wide for the length of the car, the same way ferrari kitted mr2s do. marmite it is and im on the hate side!

 

i was thinking that lol

 

What they said, Ali G was the noughtys?????

 

That Ashtray is a bir different.

Well I think that escort looks good would benefit with a color change tho maybe white or mercury grey would look better then the red
